Fear and loathing about command-line interfaces? Huh? I haven't seen 
such things. Could you throw me some links? I'd love to see such silliness.

GUIs have their uses, but there are so many things that CLIs can do that 
  GUIs can't that I sometimes wonder why the CLI is languishing in such 
obscurity.
